OpenLDAP Support for Requests to the PowerExchange Listener
OpenLDAP Support for Requests to the PowerExchange Listener
PowerExchange introduces support for the OpenLDAP implementation to authenticate PowerExchange Listener requests. PowerExchange continues to support the Oracle LDAP implementation.
When you enable LDAP authentication, the PowerExchange Listener connects to an LDAP server to authenticate the enterprise user ID and password of clients that connect to the PowerExchange Listener.
With the introduction of support for OpenLDAP, PowerExchange provides LDAP user authentication on all Linux, UNIX, and Windows platforms where the PowerExchange Listener can run, including the following platforms:
AIX
Red Hat and SUSE Linux x64
Windows x64
The PowerExchange installation program installs the OpenLDAP client files on each Linux, UNIX, or Windows machine where you install PowerExchange.
